vegankhaleesiState of me: Oh boy. Well, I was on hiatus for a good month (+?), and I think it helped re-energize me toward wanting to rp and write. I was really struggling for awhile, a lot of which I think was due to Will and I finally moving into the house. There was a lot to get used to, that I'm still getting used to, and a lot of stress and unfinished elements. (Still on-going.) My sleep is getting worse, and so is my health. I'm not quite sure what to do on that front, as I can't seem to get medicaid to stick. I still need to legally change my address, and Will makes a lot of money, so I don't know that it will improve my chances (probably not). I don't know if I should find a job that has insurance, but I don't want to leave my nannying position so I'm kind of just stuck in a rut between staying where I'm at with my declining health, or leaving my nanny job and putting a ton of effort into finding a job I even qualify for that would offer the insurance I need.
This last week in particular has been a total fail on my part. I had the entire week off and I accomplished absolutely nothing. It's like all motivation has gone out the window. There's so much to do that it overwhelms me and I just shut down. It hasn't helped that Will has been home sick all week, so we've been watching a lot of tv and not leaving the house. It's weird, because time off work should mean I have more time to get things done, and yet I can't seem to get myself to move off the goddamn couch. I couldn't even get myself to go grocery shopping. Everything has been overwhelming- even trying to buy a dinnerware set has made me want to throw my laptop out the window. idk if it's depression or what, but I've just been a blob.
ANYWAY, ENOUGH OF THAT...
Noah: Noah is ghostly again and I'm kind of into his angst, lol. It's kind of nice getting to play him closer to how he is in canon until another spell is crafted, because it's fun to make pups suffer amirite? I'm trying not to get too repetitive, though. It can get a little over-played when he's sad about dying-dying, but there are new aspects to it this time at least, like not being able to go to his classes, some people having ONLY known him as he was with the spell, and having lived like he was almost alive again for such a long time only to give that up. I'm not sure when / how this will be fixed, so for now his mood will be all over the place. Also one of his best friends is in a coma, oops. No problems threading with him for now, though, aside from slowness in general.
There isn't anything in particular I have in mind for him, and he gets along easily with just about anyone so I'm always happy to tag him around.
Baz: I hate to say it, but I'm honestly at a loss as to what to do with Baz. I don't know if it's because Sarah's been on hiatus or just general lack of ideas, but I've been struggling to get him to sound like him, if that makes sense, and I have 0 plot ideas for him. I'm thinking of doing a canon re-read to kind of resuscitate him back into my brain, and maybe that'll motivate me to get him out there. The problem is when a pup is quiet and other pups have more going on it's too easy to tag with them instead, so he gets overlooked. x____x Hopefully I can figure out something for him to get involved with. In the meantime if any pups want a vampire in their life (especially other supernatural~ pups) let me know.
Matthias: Matty has a lot going on that I've slowly been tagging my way through. His canon love interest is in Darrow, he'll be contributing to the music project, he and Dutch discovered active KIRIN members during the Purge and saved a girl (or will when the thread gets there lol...UNLESS THEY DON'T. ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN.), and he helped Marcus with an exorcism and killed a demon! I love it when he gets to do action things, even though I am less than talented at actually writing said action things. He also knows that Marcus wants to bang him but I'm doesn't know what to do with that. Can you rly bring a guy home to your gf twice, like a sexy Christmas present? ...I'm starting to feel 4am
Lila: lol she's 5 months pregnant and still hasn't told anyone so that's going well. I'm going to say her stomach is recently really starting to show (I googled pictures and it varies - 1, 2) so it's getting to the point where even her long black pirate jacket won't hide it. I haven't played her too much since coming back from hiatus, except that she found Philip's body during the Purge, found the guy who killed him using magic~ and slit his throat.
I had totally forgotten about the Unmaker fucking with magic abilities. >.> So I guess she just got lucky.
She enjoyed the revenge, it was a nice last little murdery hurrah before impending motherhood. But she's actually sad Philip is gone, his sociopathic qualities were comforting.
Nicaise: Well, before I disappeared into a long hiatus I'd gotten him into ballet, which I'd been wanting to do early on. In canon, pets are shown to be trained and versed in entertainment and I felt like Nicaise was probably particularly graceful. I missed Halloween with him and his birthday, but I've decided to actually push his birthday forward. In the book he had only just turned fourteen, because he'd been at the point where he was still getting away with claiming to only be thirteen, so I figured I'd stretch that out a bit more to either December or January. Allllso since he is a late bloomer, I'm considering giving him one hell of a growth spurt. Google tells me boys tend to grow most quickly between ages 12 and 15, so maybe 15 will be his year!
I REALLY WANT A GROUP OF LITTLES. OR AT LEAST MOSTLY LITTLES. A GANG OF YOUTHS. How do I make this happen?
Also super bummed his qt friend Liesel is gone RIP :(
I'd love to start playing stuff for December if anyone is interested?? I want to make sure to lock reqs down because my body is 500% ready to app any and all characters from Iron Gold when it comes out in January. Now that someone else is apping my beloved son Loki that takes away my eternal indecision over whether or not to app him and I am ready for Ephraim (or Lyria) (or Lysander) (whoever speaks most to my soul) (and also not being apped by someone else) (RIP Trigg I'll never forget u)
k good night

Date: 2017-11-27 10:12 am (UTC)I don't thread enough with you and yours, and I'd like to fix that!
I can give either Buffy or Newt for Baz if you'd like? Buffy because Vampire and Newt because they come from similar worlds. (I still need to read Baz's canon. >.>)
I also really enjoyed that thread with Kell, Lila, and Newt so I'd be totally game to thread them again too.
I could also throw Debora Noah's way now that I don't have Donna? Precious smol ghost.
no subject
Date: 2017-11-30 02:32 am (UTC)And oh man, I never considered how great Baz and Buffy would be. I'd love that! (And yes you should, just because it's a really cute and funny book XD)
And yes to more Lila and Newt, and also I'd love to thread Noah with Debora - he misses Donna!
Maybe we can play some of these in the upcoming gathering post? But for Baz and Buffy I could totally write something, she could catch him in the act (with his fake blood supply gone he's back to hunting animals. ew.) - or I forgot bc it's been ages since I've watched, how can Buffy tell when someone's a vampire (aside from how the vamps in the show look different)?
no subject
Date: 2017-11-30 03:07 am (UTC)I would be so down for a private thread between Buffy and Baz if you wouldn't mind putting a starter up? LOL usually by a vampire's outdated fashion sense. Technically, she's supposed to have a supernatural ability to sense~ the undead, but she never developed that skill.
The blood and pale skin is a pretty good giveaway, in the mean time.

Date: 2017-11-27 05:44 pm (UTC)She needs to hear about this priest making googly eyes at him.
Amalthea and Noah are still two of my faves - maybe they can do something in December? Try to cheer each other up? Also IDK if you'd be interested in him meeting my Catholic son, Gabriel.
I'm really feeling you on the blob thing <3 I've been struggling with that too lately, take care of you <3333
no subject
Date: 2017-11-30 02:36 am (UTC)And that sounds great! It sounds like there's gonna be a million gathering posts so we can always play there.
You take care too :( maybe it's the start of seasonal depression.

Date: 2017-11-30 06:08 am (UTC)I'd love to tag more with Baz, either with Grantaire (since he works at Green Gardens) or with Lyall (werewolf/vampire shenanigans), but definitely feel free to canon refresh first if that's stressful! I know how that can go.
Yes. You can bring a guy home to your girlfriend twice. Or just keep them separate but equal. Especially if it's Marcus. I mean.
If Lila wants new fucked up people in her life, I feel like she and Eponine would really get along! Oops I haven't announced her being here yet haha doing that now.
Also Nicaise; Eponine is only 16. She would chafe LIKE HELL at being called a youth but she'd see Nicaise as a capable-sized human being. I really do want to bring Bran (who'd have just turned 13) someday but ha ha ha ha not when I just apped a newb AND I'm having a depression swing.
Btw, I feel you on the lack of motivation, holy shit. Big, big hugs.

Date: 2017-12-02 06:04 pm (UTC)FUCK DEPRESSION SWINGS. I feel this and I hate it. But Bran would be great, lol I had a pup who was dating Bran in Tabula Rasa 500 years ago. XD

Right? Ugh.
Aww, you played with Ash's Bran! Who was dating him? I can probably not compete with her TDiR /Wales expertise, but I super enjoy the fact that I have fellows in this tiny fandom. I'd probably have to read the books about once a week to keep the exact cadence of his voice right, but I wouldn't mind that too much...
